[assembly: CLSCompliant(true)]

xmlns:d="http://schemas.microsoft.com/expression/blend/2008" d:DataContext="{d:DesignInstance local:ViewModelClassName, IsDesignTimeCreatable=True}"

- To fix problem with default Silverlight BusinessApplication template generated projects and Windows authentication, override the AuthenticationService GetAuthenticatedUser method in the web project, like this (add "using System.Web.Configuration;"):
// Have to override GetAuthenticatedUser when using Windows authentication. // Even when Windows auth is defined, the auth subsystem insists on looking for an // AspNetProvider SQL database. Code below gets the user information from the // principal in the Windows Auth case. protected override User GetAuthenticatedUser(System.Security.Principal.IPrincipal principal) { User user = new User(); Configuration config = WebConfigurationManager.OpenWebConfiguration("~"); SystemWebSectionGroup grp = (SystemWebSectionGroup)config.GetSectionGroup("system.web"); AuthenticationSection auth = grp.Authentication; if (auth.Mode == AuthenticationMode.Forms) { user = base.GetAuthenticatedUser(principal); } else if (auth.Mode == AuthenticationMode.Windows) { string[] a = principal.Identity.Name.Split('\\'); //System.DirectoryServices.DirectoryEntry ADEntry = new System.DirectoryServices.DirectoryEntry("WinNT://" + a[0] + "/" + a[1]); //string Name = ADEntry.Properties["FullName"].Value.ToString(); user.Name = a[a.Length-1]; } return user; }
- Dropshadow effect (in Resources):
<DropShadowEffect x:Key="DropShadow" BlurRadius="15" Color="Black" Direction="320" Opacity="1.0" ShadowDepth="10" />
- To use (in xaml):
Effect="{StaticResource DropShadow}"
- To use (in .cs):
control.Effect = Application.Current.Resources["DropShadow"] as System.Windows.Media.Effects.Effect
- To get position of a UIElement:
// Obtain transform information based off root element UIElement element = this as UIElement; GeneralTransform gt = element.TransformToVisual(Application.Current.RootVisual); // Find the four corners of the element Point topLeft = gt.Transform(new Point(0, 0)); Point topRight = gt.Transform(new Point(element.RenderSize.Width, 0)); Point bottomLeft = gt.Transform(new Point(0, element.RenderSize.Height)); Point bottomRight = gt.Transform(new Point(element.RenderSize.Width, element.RenderSize.Height));
